章 30: Llyne

"Lithia what a lovely name, I'm happy I was able to be able to know your real name.. it feels like we have known each other for ages, it's really a funny feeling." Rose said with a smile adorning her face.

"I feel the same Rose.." I try to stand however I'm still a little woozy. Rose pushed me down laying on the bed.

"No you don't.. rest at least one more day then I'll be happy to give you a tour around the town of Llyne." As she tucked me in.

Without saying anything I let her tuck me in as I felt her warmth nearby I felt calm, calm enough to cultivate.. however I decided to take off the bracelet and cultivate my mana instead of my Qi since i have forsaken my magic the last week.

My consciousness floated down towards my core what I saw amazed me. Inside my core is the massive Yin yang orb with the Yin representating my Qi and yang side representating my mana, surrounded my mana and Qi core three smaller orbs gravitating it, the larger of the three made of my ice mana, the next one in size an orb made of void made from my darkness mana, and a third smaller orb made from tornados representating my new found wind mana.

'Ooh the wind mana.. was it part of Master's blood? Or something, I mean I didn't have wind magic before I drank his blood. I guess I'll have to look into that. But for now I should increase my mana capacity.'

The following day i increased my mana core by a single size, my body and muscles felt invigorated when I finally opened my eyes I felt a pair of voluptuous mounds pressing against my back, turing over my eyes went slightly wide as a beautiful woman lay sleeping behind me.. "Rose... you look like her.. I'm glad you found happiness in this life." I whispered quietly.

After getting up and stretching my legs Rose and I enjoyed a nice breakfast, "So Lithia what do you plan on doing today?" Asked Rose.

"I think I'll have a look around Llyne maybe sign up for that ttournament.. i wanted to ask you something personal of you don't mind."

"Sure ask away Lithia."

"Are you happy with your life here in Llyne?" I asked Rose.

Rose was silent for a while before tearing slightly, "Not.. unhappy but not completely satisfied either.. my Husband is always away from home despite being thr town mayor.. my son is all grown up so he is never home.. to tell you the truth Lithia, it's rather lonely here and when you walked into my life I felt a spark of warmth reignite within me.. or something."

I nodded, "Soon the Eldoria Kingdom will cease to exist.. in it's place something new will emerge, don't be afraid If you hear people speak my name with malicious words in tow. When this day comes come to Eldoria and I'll take you in as my own.. whether you come as a friend or something more that's up to you.."

Rose was silent for a long while seemingly contemplating but all of a sudden she simply nods without saying anything else.

Rose was quickly returned to her jovial self as we finished up with breakfast I helped her clean up then I dressed myself, putting the magic suppression bracelet back on as I left her home.

I like being underestimated, I love seeing the fear and regret on my opponents face as my fist grips their hearts. I am not that weak kid slain for my own beliefs and wants.. I am Lithia.. I am a bad person.. but I can't help my desires now that I have the power to take what I want. Still this doesn't mean I will kill recklessly.. yet.

Walking through the broad streets of this quaint village, on both sides of the merchants flogging their wares doing their hardest to sell their merchandise. One of the merchants stood on a podium, "Listen all my name is Dan the Dependable at your service! Lend me an ear, come one and all, men and women, young and old. I have is my position a mystical pill. This pill will increased your mana 100 fold!"

The salesmen waved his hand while speaking I noticed a ripple of mana pluse very faintly throughout the crowd, looking around everyone seemed enamored by this man leaving myself unaffected as he continued with a grin curling on his face.

"Now I know what you are all thinking this marvelous mystical life changing pill must cost an arm and a leg to aquire.. while it is true the materials to craft such a godly mmedication are expensive and rare.. normally this pill would cost at least a crimson coin.." The salesmen takes a pause as the crowd begins to groan, the salesmen continues his speech after a few more moments.

"I was born in a small town such as this so I know a single crimson coin is equal to at least 10 years of wags.. as such I will be selling each miraculous medication for only 30 gold peices I will also accept items of equal quality for trade.. this offer will only last for a limited time come to my new shop here in Llyne, I heard on the grapevine a tournament is coming within a week perhaps aquiring one of my precious pills before then." With a bow he enters his abode with a makeshift sign above called Dan's Deals as a flood of people rush into his shop.

Slightly stunned i chuckle to myself before removing my braclet and immediately hiding my aura as I merge into the shadows and make my way into his shop watching as hundreds of people buy is "miracle pills" handing over coin and treasures alike.

"This is gonna be fun.." I muttered to myself.
